Ricky Sullivan Himself

It's the Vibe of it The Dennis Denuto Metric is a structured vibe check for AI-built features — named after a fictional Aussie solicitor who couldn't argue law but could feel injustice.

In 1997, a fictional Australian solicitor argued a constitutional case with the words "It's the vibe of it." He lost. But he was right.

The Dennis Denuto Metric applies that same instinct to AI-assisted development.

New Zealand has the cheapest government money can buy.

It lacks a lot of my personality and knowledge about me. But that’s something that can be progressively tuned. I just need to think about boundaries.

First as a joke. But then I thought why not. So after extracting 5 years worth of Slack messages and running a deep analysis of how I interact with my team. I was able to build a persona that replicates me.

Me. As a bot.

I’ve been seconded to a new role at work. Since the team were worried about my move, I suggested that I could replace myself with Ricky Bot.

Pulling a learn-to-read book with six kupu Māori is another educational assault Restricting te reo Māori for tamariki learning to read further alienates Māori in the education system – and that has enormous consequences.

Developers, Reinvented – Thomas Dohmke What started as fear of AI replacing developers is switching to pragmatically embracing the ambitious reality of AI and viewing it as a growth opportunity. As we build the tools of tomorrow, we can us...

Maybe “going viral” over “flooding” would have been a better choice of words.

As a bonus, I’ve been using MSW/Data to scaffold out model entities and using a custom cache persistence utility, store stuff in local(or sesssion)Storage.

This why as a front-end dev, I build out what I feel should be the API shape using MSW. As a bonus, dev work isn’t held up by missing back-ends and we can all reason about the shape of the API.

Building a Personal AI Factory (July 2025 snapshot) Multiple parallel Claude-Code sessions power a self-improving AI factory where agents write, review, and refine code.

“That’s where my factory sits today: good enough to ship code while I refill my coffee, not yet good enough to bump me off the payroll.”

Microsoft’s Copilot integration is a stealing pile of shit. It’s so very complex having to add a Custom Connection, build a swagger definition. Jump through all the hoops. It feels like the opposite of what MCP set out to achieve.

Also company: we're going to need some sort of plan outlining your objective, how you intend to achieve that, how that aligns with the current goals and the value this will add for our customers/product.

Company: I see you’re using ChatGPT for work. Submit a ticket for access to our Enterprise version of ChatGPT so that our sensitive data is not put out there in the public arena and we will approve.
